Get F-Card or Continue with current A card?

Question

I have been working & living in Belgium since January 2019 (first A card was issued in May 2019). I got married to my Belgian wife last September 2021, and we have a kid together.

I'll be eligible to apply for my permanent B/D card come June 2024 once I clock 5 years of interrupted work (my current A card will expire in Dec 2025) & Belgian citizenship thereafter. However, I'm also eligible to apply for the F - card today, I wanted to find out what will be my outcome if I got the F-card now. Will I still be able to apply for my Citizenship come June 2024 or I'll have to spend an additional 5 years from the date of first issue of my F-card to be eligible for citizenship?

Ask at your Commune/Gemeente as they are the ones who have to apply the rules, but I suspect that it will be more favourable for you to have an F card.
